Danielle Thompson - Account Coordinator & Graphic Designer

Danielle graduated from the University of Victoria with a BA in History and a Minor in Applied Ethics. She worked in the hospitality industry for six years where she learned exactly how to keep other people happy and is now working on the same for herself. She is currently finishing the last course of her Graphic Design Certification from British Columbia Institute of Technology. 

Danielle has a passion for correction, perfection and making things shine. This is truly all-encompassing—from folding laundry and washing dishes to proofreading and editing, and (of course) design! She happily lives in the PNW of Canada, and loves exploring forest trails, paddleboarding at the lake, and generally being near the ocean in her free time.

Has been part of the team since: June 2022

I believe in this principle, even though it isn’t always the popular opinion: The world doesn’t hate us for making something imperfect. Perfectionism gets in the way of greatness. I’m slowly rewiring my brain to fully believe this myself.  

Specialties & Interests: Photo Retouching, (Re)branding, Vector Graphics, Proofreading

Favorite Story to TellIn 2015, I was in Nepal with my cousin when a massive earthquake hit, not far from where we were staying. When I got back from my excursion, my cousin was quite shaken up about it, but I hadn’t felt anything and didn’t know what was wrong. Turns out that exactly when the first earthquake shook the entire area, I was up in the air paragliding! It was a wild coincidence (and the best place to be!), but I did experience the many aftershocks on the ground.
